Man Alive! is a 1952 American animated short documentary film directed by William T. Hurtz.

It was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Short.^[3]

In this animated cartoon, an analogy is made between a badly functioning car and a man with physical symptoms that could lead to neoplasm. Various stages of denial, unprofessional advice and quick fix remedies are shown (alongside the seven danger signals of cancer, recommendation of cancer therapies and debunked cancer myths). He finally goes to a good garage paying heavily to have it repaired, learning that he shouldn't make the same mistake with his body. He goes to the doctor for his indigestion (one of the symptoms of cancer).^[4][5]
